Continuous data availability — no downtime.

Self healing clusters — transparent recovery.
All nodes work in unison with no single point of failure. Transparent recovery from disk volume or node failures ensures no loss of data. CAStor's collaborative recovery process ensures continuous up-time and quick recovery without admin intervention.

Seamlessly add capacity without impacting applications.
Just boot up a new server node and it is automatically recognized by and joined to the cluster. Its capacity is pooled with the overall cluster capacity with no downtime or impact to running applications.

Scale performance — meet demand.
Overall cluster performance improves with addition of new nodes or nodes with greater processor power and storage capacity. Adding server nodes to the cluster is like adding lanes to a highway. The larger the cluster the faster the throughput performance.

Location independence for continuous application access.
The Universally Unique Identifiers (UUID) used to identify objects provides location independence so applications don't have to know or care where an object is stored.

Local Area Replication

Replicate for faster recovery. Replication scales, RAID does not. The larger the cluster, the faster the recovery time. Define sub-clusters to suit your needs and replicate objects between. Replicate over a local connection to sub-clusters with different characteristics. Create a sub-cluster in a different building on campus. Create a subcluster for drives set to lower CPU utilization for power savings. CAStor brings new flexibility to storage configuration.More

Intelligent Wide Area Replication

Replicate between sites for automatic failover. Replicate to a second location for disaster recovery and failover. Use for multi-site data recovery, mirrored clusters, central-departmental clusters; select all or subset of objects to replicate. Define custom metadata to specify object replication policies. More
